[QUOTE="Bennett Prescott, post: 26423, member: 4"] Re: Line arrays... JBL vs EAW Which one can you cross rent more of? Which one will someone likely cross rent from you? Of those two I prefer the sound quality of the 730s, although box for box they're probably equivalent output. 4 boxes a side does not a serious outdoor rig make, with flown SB730 or not (which are cool, but managing another bandpass in another location is the kind of stuff I get paid for). 8 SB1000s will do the trick in the LF, though! The v4 JBL presets are very good, and the whole line is very voicing and phase compatible. The v4 presets are doing some of the same things as the GF EAW presets, whether they're doing them as well I leave up to you. How JBL continues to "sell" (yes, they're free, provided you buy all new amps, and they're definitely a selling point for a provider when doing a bid) new processing for boxes that have been on the market for some time is very interesting to me. You can only fix so much in processing, but one wonders how nobody seems to balk at the fact that it took them 4 (and soon 5, although 4 is excellent) tries to get it "right". [/QUOTE]
